Add a new flag HASH_ZERO which when provided grantees that the hash table that is returned by alloc_large_system_hash() is zeroed. In most cases that is what is needed by the caller. Use page level allocator's __GFP_ZERO flags to zero the memory. It is using memset() which is efficient method to zero memory and is optimized for most platforms.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
